Preparing for adulthood is a time when young people and their families are thinking about the future. If children are likely to be eligible for social care as an adult, early joint planning is needed from the age of 14. This will involve the young person, their parents or carers and other people who know the young person well from education, health, social care services or the voluntary sector.

Reading Borough Council has published its Preparing for Adulthood Policy 2019, which aims to ensure young people and their families have appropriate support as they move into adulthood and there are no gaps in the delivery of services

The document also outlines the Transitions Pathway, which outlines the steps to support young people transferring to adult services. See page 14.
